Lacky Bridge

Old Aghalane bridge

The bridge at this crossing was blown up in November 1972, a temporary bridge was placed over it but this was removed and it was never reopened. In 1999 it was replaced by the George Mitchell Memorial Bridge on the new road.

Clady Bridge

The crossing was left open; the British Army had a heavily fortified permanent base in Clady that you had to pass through before you got to the Clady bridge crossing. The British Army base was attacked many times.

Project Information

The project sets out to provide an opportunity for residents along both sides of the border to remember and express their feelings in relation to the closure of border roads and the impact that it had on their lives.
